This thread may be a couple of comments long or it could turn in a 2 pager. Who knows?

Ok Pet and I are looking for more toys and most importantly some BDSM gear. Nothing crazy, but the shopping list is long enough that we are going to buy it over the next year. We have started looking around the city’s adult stores, but their selection is underwhelming and cheaply made. We have broken enough gags, masks & floggers to start our own little store.

The same thing is true with most toys too. We are rebuilding our toy collection. We decided to restart our entire collection (with the exception of her Wand because she will never give that toy up lol) and buy things together.

Where would you suggest we shop to find quality toys? And quality BDSM products? Anything you can recommend would be a help.

Thank you, ladies!

Mr. S and Stockroom get my votes too. Could also provide the name o the fetlife profile of someone I personally know who does some leather crafting via private message. Including making sashes for IMsL and such.

Define "nothing crazy...."

Cuz my first recs are Mr S Leather and The Stockroom. NSFW warning in effect.

VPLeather is a very friendly site, the closest to SFW on the list. Bonus for vegan gear and lady friendly.

Honestly the “nothing crazy” was more to not come off badly to everyone else lol. We are exploring BDSM, but not afraid or turned off by anything.

Thank you a ton for your recommendations. Anything you think that can help I will welcome. No need for the NFSW warning although I appreciate the gesture.

Thank you! I will gladly accept the name of the fetlife creator. I appreciate your help right now.

Not sure if he is doing any commission work or anything right now, but he made me some very sturdy ankle n wrist cuffs, along with some other odds n ends. Oh. He will not recognize Masqued Visage as my handle. If he asks who referred you, I served as his boi for a while n he likes my dim sum/dumplings.

As others have said, Stockroom is pretty good. Amazon can be oddly good for simple stuff like metal cuffs or cock cages if that's your thing. All of our floggers and rope has come from naughty conventions. There's a lot of really good sellers on etsy that will make you custom floggers and impact toys. I can get the name and link for a leather goods seller who makes some really fun dragons tongues and other slappy stingy toys if you're in the market for that.

Really though, one person's crazy is another person's Tuesday, so being a tiny bit more specific about what you're in the market for may be useful. :)

I feel like the whole world is having an orgy, and I didn't get an invitation.

i sort of got the invite and it freaked me out.
I’m basically straight, demisexual, rather vanilla with a slight twist. Monogamist.

You might be better off finding a good leatherworker and having stuff custom made.
You get better quality leather and workmanship and some can surprise you with the price especially if you order more things from them. You can have things tailored and coloured exactly the way you want them. They also stand behind their work.

A lot of the bondage gear in stores is just horribly made of the cheapest materials.
Even some of the more reputable stores: I used to order stuff from Aslan Leather but was really disappointed in a lot of it, and had to have it repaired because rivets and eyelets and things were badly installed and just popped off during any serious use - isn't that what bondage gear is for? : unamused:

Some just like the look, the hint.
Whatever helps.
